Sylvester Stallone to Star in Omerta TV Series - Slashfilm

Stallone was asked to write, direct, and star in a third Godfather movie by Paramount back in 1983 an offer he declined. He allegedly said, “This is the worst idea since my conception” when approached with the idea leading to Francis Ford Coppola capping off the historic series seven years later with The Godfather Part III. The Omerta TV series will once again give Stallone a chance to be a part of the legendary author’s work. A pilot script has already been completed by Justin Herber and Adam Hoff and the search for a female lead is believed to already be underway as the new mafia television series is coming together quickly.
